APL Logistics said Thursday it has released a version of its SeeChange shipment tracking tool for mobile devices.
SeeChange Lite allows customers to secure tracking capability from Apple, Android and Blackberry mobile and handheld devices in a free, downloadable app version.
“SeeChange Lite is a step towards enhancing our suite of value-added services to meet complex, international logistics challenges,” said May Chew, vice president of technology for APL Logistics. “This new technology tool addresses the increasingly mobile needs of our customers who require instant and reliable access to shipment information to manage their supply chains.”
In addition to using SeeChange Lite to monitor their shipments and any activity on their purchase orders, customers can access route information as well as retrieve shipment, equipment and booking summaries. Customers can also update shipment status and location from a mobile device.
The mobile application is currently optimized for iOS5, with a version for iOS6 available soon. - Eric Johnson
